so there are two ways for nonpremium members to watch the new episodes now..
although i don't exactly know how to utilize my guest passes since i don't know anyone out here..
haha
great job CR! keep it up~

For the record, this game does not cost any money. You are signing up for a free account (email address and name), and you don't have to pay anything to play it. You can earn points through gameplay or buy points through the in-game store to purchase upgrades and additional content in the game, but you never have to pay or enter personal information if you don't want to.

This was a subscription game but they moved over to a free-to-play model. It's pretty fun imo, pretty nice that you get two simulcasts out of it too.

Did you sign up while you was still a Premium Member? I already play LotR OnLine, I doubt I'm gonna get any passes out of that...

Anyways, saying it's a scam without checking goes for flaming and trolling. IMO, people who flame like that are in the wrong place. I smelled something fish when Premium Membership was created, but I decided to wait and see, and Shinji proved me wrong. things get somewhat fishy sometimes, but if you paay more attention, it's more like pay-by-click-ads. But instead of CR getting money out of it, you, the clicking gets you passes to watch episodes. It's pretty nice, sometimes I think if It's all right spending my money on CR, since I sometimes spend a couple months without watching anything and it's not exactly cheap if you consider currencies... Maybe for other people it'd be a pretty good and fair way to watch some anime, and for CR it is a way to advertise the Premium Membership, as well as providing more people the chance to watch simulcasts.

Just one thing though, this thing with Fairy Tail is one of the things that makes me cherish my Premium Membership the most, but I'd like to ask if isn't there any way to at least keep the old episodes available. I mean, it's not a storage problem, if you sum up all apisodes available Fairy Tail most likely means less than 0.0000000000001% of the storage... So I suppose it is the publishes being creepy.

So the question, Shinji, if nothing else, wouldn't at least keeping the older Fairy Tail episodes available to be watched be possible?

Plus, you guys should add Initial D, Magic Knights Rayearth and some other older Animes (Full Pokemon could be cool too, never got to watch everything!). They could even be sold separately as packages or something, DVDs, On-Line Streaming, for Download, doesn't matter. If the DVDs aren't available in your country it's be pretty cool to be able to support their creators though CrunchyRoll. You know, like, selling "Full Mahou Kishi Rayearth Combo" with all Episodes (Maybe Soundtrack too) for a few bucks, etc. I bet a few Publishers would like the idea and come up with new interesting ways to make this even more cool. =D

By the way, if you guys do this with Initial D and pretty much anything "Clamp" (Rayearth, Cardcaptor Sakura, Tokyo Babylon, X, xxxHolic, anything) I'd be the first one on the buying list! =b

any body with a brain knows those "special offers" arent free, they charge the shit out of your cellphone just to get confirmation not to mention you cant even get threw it without buying something, CR is just trying to milk more money out of us,how pathetic, honesty is clearly not peoples strong sort these days
